Back button does not work on my url

[teacup]

If some one from their PC logs on to say

http://www.google.com,

type my url in,then go to my web site, their back button does not send them back to the previous site, ie google. Any ideas whats wrong with my source code? I built the site using Web Artist 2, by Sierra

Could you post some of the source code?

My clairvoyancy is working...

Well, my guesses are that:

1) You are forwarding from your index page to the first page of you site with a META refresh or similar

2) Your host is forwarding your page, or shows your site in a frame

3) Your domain name has web forwarding set up in some way that causes this behaviour


What happens if you click "back" a few times in succession, quickly?

Looks like another IE oddity. Back button works fine in Mozilla, but not in IE for me

it's because you're using javascript to set the location.href.

Try window.location = 'blah.html' instead.

When i change the 'index.html' to 'blah.html' and upload it changes back to original location.href. Any ideas what causes this, and stopping back button to another web site from working?
